Is anyone else going to this? Looks great - on the tour route. Beer, food and music, and camping from Thursday to Sunday for £50. I only booked on Friday and was surprised to find it wasn't sold out - I'd thought we'd pay almost that much just to camp if we could even find anywhere.

So, question - does anyone know what the deal is with road closures and riding the tour route ahead/behind/around the tour passing through. We're planning to take the bikes up and wondering what and when to ride.

There's a fair bit of info on the road closures on the site linked to in yer OP, as I understand it, on a bike you're okay until an hour before the caravan comes through, cars a long time earlier.

Sorry if that's a bit of a sparse answer, I'm on a mobile..

Just looked at the lineup, the only one I've heard of is Who Stevens, must be getting old.
